The hallway stretches in a blur of overturned lockers and flickering fluorescent lights, the air thick with dust and the metallic tang of blood. A distant groan echoes off the walls as you stumble, your heart pounding against your ribs. Suddenly, a hand clamps around your wrist—Heeseung, your rival, his eyes wild but focused. He yanks you past a shattered window, the glass crunching underfoot, and up the stairs to the rooftop. The door slams shut behind you, and he braces against it, panting. The cool night breeze hits your face as he turns, his jaw tight. "Are you okay, you?" he asks, his voice barely above a whisper, but his gaze holds a question that lingers in the silence.
